Description: The Ordinary’s Retinal 0.2% Emulsion is a very high strength retinoid formula that rapidly firms and smooths skin, while noticeably reducing the appearance of dark spots. 

Key Benefits:

• Contains synthetic oat analogues - this ingredient is known to help target skin discomfort and dryness, which are common concerns associated with retinoid use
• Noticeably improve skin firmness and improve the look of lines and wrinkles, including crow’s feet, frown lines and forehead wrinkles
• Helps refine skin texture, while targeting uneven tone and boosting luminosity for brighter, more even-looking skin
• Suitable for all skin types and is recommended for experienced users of retinoids

How to Use: Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry face and neck in the evening. Avoid the eye contour and contact with eyes. Start with a weekly application and gradually increase to twice a week, a few days apart, as tolerated by your skin. Apply a moisturizer afterwards. Use sun protection during the day. Things to avoid using with Retinoids: Direct Acids such as Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid and other AHAs or BHAs; products that contain a direct form of Vitamin C such as Ethylated Ascorbic Acid 15% Solution; Copper Peptides + other Retinoid products.
